1 month check up

Aidan had his one month check up today. He's now 9 lbs 6.5 oz and 21.5 in long. So he's gotten an inch longer and almost 2 lbs heavier than he was at birth! The pediatrician said he's just a bit on the small side of average, but as I like to remind Ian, he was a week early! LOL! Every time we go to the doctor they alway comment on how bright his eyes are and how alert he is. He's healthy and she assured me that he should start sleeping for longer periods of time soon! Here's some pics and video I shot of him last night when he was playing with his "gym" that I just put together.

Beardsley has come to check out the new toys! Too bad Aidan's already playing with them!

Aidan is 4 weeks old!

Aidan is 4 weeks old today! It's been quite the week. He had been very fussy and was not sleeping a lot, so I took him into the pediatrician on Thursday and his doctor is pretty sure he has Acid Reflux! Poor guy! So he's on Zantac now and it seems to be helping. He is making great eye contact and loves to play. We are teaching him "high five" and it is really cute. When you put up your hand in front of him, he tries to hit it. So while he might not understand high five, he's still playing the game! We are getting more smiles from him lately and he enjoys just sitting and observing around him. The cats are taking to him pretty well, except for when he cries... then they disappear! Here are some pictures I took of him this morning when he was playing in his bouncer. He's getting pretty good at hitting his toys and making them move!

Oh no! Hiccups again!

I love his pout at the end! Poor guy with his hiccups!
